   CROSSBREED Bio:



Everything great first comes from an individuals inner thoughts of how to create, alter and/or manage what has been laid before them. Chris Nemzek (guitar/founder) was that individual who turned his passion for many genres of music into a one cohesive blend of Electronica/Industrial/Metal.



However, Chriss vision could not take place without the help of others with a similar passion for creativity, and this is where the group we know as Crossbreed began. Slowly the pieces to this puzzle fell into place with addition of Charlie Parker (bass), Travis Simpkins (drums), and keyboards masters Flip, Jason Tropf and DJ Izzo. James Rietz offered the vocals, lyrics, creativity and determination to complete Chris Nemzeks original vision for Crossbreed.



With the addition of James Rietz, followed Crossbreeds first independent full-length album which was released in 1999, titled .01. Only 1,000 copies of .01 were produced and the album is very difficult to come across today. Crossbreeds first major breakthrough took place in 2000. It was then that Kittie had access to Crossbreeds (Doll) demo and decided to show it to Artemis Records. The label was impressed by the sound of the Tampa, Florida unit and decided to sign them on. Crossbreed then went to New York to prepare and record their first official release, Synthetic Division, which hit the record stores in May 2001.



In 2005, a newly reconstructed Crossbreed, which parted ways with their record label, released, New Slave Nation. NSN (e.p.) was the bands first release with their new line up: James Rietz (vox), Chris Nemzek (guitar), Ian Hall (Keyboards/Programming),

Travis Inskeep, (Keyboards/Programming), and Corey Floyd (Bass).
